my 23yo Laars lx400 has started to leak somewhere and I'm considering replacing it vs repairing it.

I have a pool/spa combo and with solar and a cover It is used to heat just the spa 99% of the time.

It appears some are not avail in CA. What are people getting these days?

Many repair parts are no longer readily available for that heater (same as mine, different control panel).
MasterTemp/Max-E-Therm have both proven to be reliable. RayPak seems to have resolved an issue they had with a hi-limit switch. When its time for a repair (and it will be sooner or later) RayPaks are usually simpler and less expensive.
 
Go with the Jandy JXI. I used to exclusively install Raypak/Rheem but about 5 years ago I saw lots of issues with these units. So I switched to Jandy. So far I find their product to be solid plus it's pretty rodent proof which is needed in some areas.
